Soccer Club
Plans Clinic
With Match
There has been another event
added to Homecoming this year,
and it could prove to be an
outstanding addition if AC stu
dents will only give it a chance.
We’re referring to a soccer
clinic and soccer game to be
put on by the Chapel Hill soc
cer club, a member of the
10-team North Carolina Soccer
League.
The clinic will be held Satur
day at 11 a.m. with instruction
in various phases of the game
being given by the players of
the Chapel Hill club. A short
game will be played by these
same men against a group of
AC students following the clinic.
However, the highlight attraction
of the day will come at 2:30
p.m. when Chapel Hill will take
Greensboro, another member of
the NCSL, at Toisnot Park, in
what should prove to be an
interesting match.
